“That one can convince one’s opponents with printed reasons, I have not believed since the year 1764. It is not for that purpose that I have taken up my pen, but rather merely to annoy them, and to give strength and courage to those on our side, and to make it known to the others that they have not convinced us.”
G.C. Lichtenberg (1742 – 1799), courtesy of 'Deogolwulf'

A bucket and spade day today

No, no, not for the beach, for the restaurant! Although we are going to the seaside - Sidmouth, to be precise. It's a superb, sunny, summer day today but tomorrow that rare state of affairs will be well and truly corrected according to the forecast. We went to Sidmouth last year and it is the quintessential English seaside town. Off the beaten track, so the coach-loads of tattooed chavs usually go elsewhere. There is absolutely nothing to do there except find the excellent sea-front hotel with its immaculate terrace and gardens that we found last year and enjoy a leisurely - very leisurely - lunch. I may, or may not, be in a fit state to post something this evening!

Well, David, I'll have to admit you look rather fetching in your little hanky and rolled up pants but I prefer you in your long-johns. Causes my tiny heart to go all aflutter just thinking about it.
Oh the joy of DD in long-johns.
Bliss!!
